Forging classes in Central PA?

[brians]

Hi guys,

Looking for some forging lessons in the Harrisburg/Lancaster area and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions about schools or blacksmiths that provide formal or informal lessons?

Thanks and kind regards,

Brian

Hey George,

Didn't know you were set up for classes, I'm laid off from work at Mack Trucks right now, nothing but time on my hands, how much for the classes? When are you holding them?

Bob, I have 4 gas forges setup (one has to be relined), take the shop tour on my site. Give me a call on my cell 508 951 2719 and I'll give you the details. The last big Hammer-In I had over 40 people here at my shop.
